well. I noticed their surge prices was now fixed, I complained on 3 different trips in one day after seeing how poor it was(even the riders were surprised when they saw how little they had to pay). After few minutes of complaining to uber they replied all my complaints with "you got the right amount for the trip". when I decided enough was enough was when I went to island after they closed the bridge and spent 2hours plus and was asked to collect 7100. As I said, I switched to indrive and so far so good...it might not be the same for everyone, but for me I'm enjoying it. Also, i don't frequent the mechanic workshop like before.

You made the right choice. You don't go to mech frequently because you are in charge of your itinerary. and you don't fall for the "do 20 trips get 20k again"
Because the longer you flog the car, the higher the tendency of visiting the mech workshop.

Uber has always billed low. I remembered mentioning here in 2019. I carried two riders on card trip from metal box to ikeja shoprite and the trip ended 300 and something naira, no discount o. Then they were still charging 25%.
So what gets to you is displayed. 300 naira pooped up.
I was shocked 😲 . because Keke was still running then . I said keke won't take you chartered for 300 bucks. A whole 2006 corrolla riding for 300 naira? I asked myself? Are you in the right place?

Northbird don come nko this work pass me 😂

I think there will be a shift in everything soon and comrade’s just have to hold fort. There’s no such thing as give price on Indrive again. Feels like Ramadan is affecting business or it’s the economy using Ramadan as cover up. Anyways cost of running a car now can shift anyone of business, so waka jeje is very important. Battery along that barely last one year is going above 60k for 75ahm. So I wonder how drivers drag 1500 trips, left to me the trip go sleep there. The courier package is the worst. Some times I am tempted to pick it, just to blast the riders.

All in all, drivers should use their head, doubt if anyone can intentionally buy toks to run this business now.

Yeah, Ramadan has its effects too. I was at Wole Olateju yesterday evening. I parked and non of those guys using parking as side hustle came to disturb me. I mean the whole street was slightly deserted.

I bought battery 42k around August last year. Heard eversstart 75amps is around 62k atm.

when the trip ends on bolt, it might be around 9k or 9k5 and bolt drivers will be happy not knowing the could have made 15k on indrive.

I have experimented on this before, I realized if you're putting pick up location on indrive yourself, the price will go up but if you let it detect your location by itself, the price will be less...


And, sometimes, indriver do have surge too but they don't indicate it on their own app.


You can put it to test too

you got it wrong. There are good days on Indrive when you get amazing prices, far better than Bolt. Na because you no dey use Indrive frequently.

I have done multiple trips on Indrive with high prices on reasonable distance

The biggest mistake any driver can do is to rely solely on one APP. Compare and contrast prices, choose the platform you prefer to work on a particular day, you will always make good profit

Bolt also has its own sure times so I dont get ur comparison.
The advantage of Indrive is just that a rider can put a high price when in a hurry to leave a location. And low commission.
In All these preaching Una dey preach, its only Cheerfulgiver that I have seen his dashboard.
Is there Anybody doing 50-60k gross steady on a daily basis on Indrive?
If there is none, then u guys should just stop making noise cos it amounts to empty praising of an empty app. I have tried it, so that nobody will tell me fairy tales and it wasn't worthwhile. I only use it like one trip in two/three days.
I also notice Indrive is heavily dependent on Bolt surge. can a man be bigger than its source of life or existence?

All Uber prices are fixed. That's how I picked a rider on Uber at Ikeja and less than 10 minutes into the trip, Lastma bursted my two tyre with their spike.

I got to a place and stopped and the rider asked me to end the trip that they are in a hurry. I ended the trip and Uber asked the rider to pay 6800 for a trip that lasted 14 minutes, 3.8km. The trip was from Ikeja to VI and I ended it right there at Ikeja and Uber is asking the rider to pay the same amount they would have used to get to VI.

The rider just transferred 2k to me, booked another ride this time on Bolt and left. I made the rider to understand that the fixed price could work against the driver in a situation where there is serious traffic.

I reported to Uber and got my money back.

So if you had spent 2hours on the trip, it would have amounted to the same price !. Waoh.. so much for dynamic pricing.

The average Nigerian citizen cannot afford private taxis of the level of Uber & co (AC tight, neat vehicle etc)

Check it, they can't even afford decent buses for mass transit, go look at the brt how many of them still have AC running. Danfo is the standard for public transport in this wretched country. Uber, indrive and bolt are just preying on the desperation, the lack of option and the foolishness of Nigerian drivers

That trip was UberXShare. Always avoid such request anytime you see it as it's a sure way for a driver to get burnt. It's fare is fixed no matter what you encounter on the trip unlike the uberX.
